Sequential Processing for Organic Photovoltaics: Design Rules for Morphology Control by Tailored Semi-Orthogonal Solvent Blends
Jordan C. Aguirre,Steven A. Hawks,Amy S. Ferreira,Patrick Y. Yee,Selvam Subramaniyan,Samson A. Jenekhe,Sarah H. Tolbert,Benjamin J. Schwartz +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Flory-Huggins χ parameter of the 2-chlorophenol/co-solvent blend was tuned to optimally swell the polymer of interest for fullerene interdiffusion without dissolution of the polymer underlayer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing matched polymer:Fullerene solar cells made by solution-sequential processing and traditional blend casting: Nanoscale structure and device performance
Steven A. Hawks,Jordan C. Aguirre,Laura T. Schelhas,Robert James Thompson,Rachel C. Huber,Amy S. Ferreira,Guangye Zhang,Andrew A. Herzing,Sarah H. Tolbert,Benjamin J. Schwartz +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the composition and thickness-matching of SqP active layers has been compared with traditional blend casting (BC) and sequential processing (SqP), where the pure polymer and fullerene materials are cast sequentially from different solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive Penetration of Evaporated Electrode Metals into Fullerene Films: Intercalated Metal Nanostructures and Influence on Device Architecture
Guangye Zhang,Steven A. Hawks,Chilan Ngo,Laura T. Schelhas,D. Tyler Scholes,Hyeyeon Kang,Jordan C. Aguirre,Sarah H. Tolbert,Benjamin J. Schwartz +8 more
TL;DR: This paper shows that when commonly used electrode metals are evaporated onto films of fullerene derivatives (such as [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), the metal penetrates many tens of nanometers into the fullerenes, which decreases the effective electrical thickness of fulrerene-based sandwich structure devices, and thus significantly alters the device physics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding Local and Macroscopic Electron Mobilities in the Fullerene Network of Conjugated Polymer‐based Solar Cells: Time‐Resolved Microwave Conductivity and Theory
Jordan C. Aguirre,Christopher Arntsen,Samuel Hernandez,Rachel C. Huber,Alexandre M. Nardes,Merissa Halim,Daniel Kilbride,Yves Rubin,Sarah H. Tolbert,Nikos Kopidakis,Benjamin J. Schwartz,Daniel Neuhauser +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, flash-photolysis time-resolved microwave conductivity (TRMC) experiments, and space-charge-limit current (SCLC) mobility estimates are used to examine the roles of local and macroscopic electron mobility in conjugated polymer/fullerene BHJ photovoltaics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Panoramic View of Electrochemical Pseudocapacitor and Organic Solar Cell Research in Molecularly Engineered Energy Materials (MEEM)
Jordan C. Aguirre,Amy S. Ferreira,Hong Ding,Samson A. Jenekhe,Nikos Kopidakis,Mark Asta,Laurent Pilon,Yves Rubin,Sarah H. Tolbert,Benjamin J. Schwartz,Bruce Dunn,Vidvuds Ozolins +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive study of capacitive energy storage is presented, which combines experimental and computational components to achieve a fundamental understanding of charge storage processes in redox-based materials, specifically transition metal oxides.
